Bus Stop at UCC! An Overdose of Pornography!

Bus Stop at UCC! An Overdose of Pornography!
19.02.2015 LISTEN

The year 2014 taught us as Ghanaians that people were now just fascinated or entangled in the web of ‘self-shooting’ themselves in home-made pornographic movies which whether by divine orchestration or human ingenuity find their way onto the internet and become the talk of town; every tom, dick and harry in the country gets to see and talk about it.

Skipping the tall list of such tapes released in 2014 to 2015, it was a feeling of disgust when I learnt of a certain ‘limping man’ having videos of his sexual escapades with over 60 women leaked unto the internet some weeks ago. As if that isn't enough, my innocent self-got to know of a beautiful lady, getting herself and her family, embarrassed in a shameful act of ‘polished sex for cash’. She is currently aspiring to be a student leader, SRC President of the University of Cape Coast!

What an embarrassment to student leadership; that is if she is voted into office or has held a leadership position at a lower level in her school.

The lady, Nana Abena Korkor Addo revealed in different Facebook posts and chats that she had slept with some Ghanaian big names expecting cash in return to run her campaign. Well, somehow, it didn’t materialize; the ‘big men’ disappointed her after having their way, so she decided to punish them exposing them. As to whether that was to her advantage or otherwise, I leave that to your judgment.

For me, it’s always disheartening to hear such regressive news, much more when it has to do with ladies.

To some, it’s exciting to see such videos come out occasionally yet to some others, it’s just not fascinating and need not to be faced with smiling faces.

In spite of my position on all of this, I don’t intend producing a tall list of what society must do now in this regard (maybe on a later date) but I throw a challenge to the dozens of youth development, leadership organization that have made it their core mandate to raise transformational leaders who will responsibly take up the mantle of leadership and work the nation up from its regrettable state!

We can save a word for the big men ‘spoiling the children till later’.
